Campus Fund Reviews 85

A very friendly and informative introduction from Aaron of Campus Fund. I was impressed by the lack of rules which other prop firms use to ensure that you fail and end up paying many times to validate your account. My account was set up and ready to trade within one hour. Looking forward to a profitable future with this innovative trading company.

Platform is working well. Recommended 👍

Why is the trust score of this website strongly low?

The content on the website raises several red flags that are commonly associated with financial scams:

1. Vague and Overpromising Language: The website uses vague and overpromising language, such as “instant funding,” “up to $1m+ without passing a challenge,” and “90% profit share.” These claims are often unrealistic in the financial industry.

2. Lack of Specifics: There is a lack of specific information about how the platform operates, how it generates profits, and the exact terms and conditions of its services.

3. Invite-Only Model: The website mentions that the platform is “invite-only,” which can be a tactic used by scams to create a sense of exclusivity and urgency.

4. Use of Buzzwords: The website uses buzzwords like “artificial intelligence,” “machine learning,” and “deep learning” without providing concrete details on how these technologies are used.

5. Unrealistic Profit Claims: The promise of profits from day one and the lack of emphasis on the risks involved in trading are common in financial scams.

6. No Clear Business Model: The website does not clearly explain how it makes money, which is a significant red flag in the financial industry.

7. Disclaimers: The disclaimers at the bottom of the page, especially the one about fictitious funds, are concerning. It’s important to carefully read and understand these disclaimers.

8. Lack of Regulatory Information: There is no clear information about the platform’s regulatory status or oversight, which is crucial for any legitimate financial service.

9. High-Risk Language: Phrases like “disrupting the industry,” “pioneering a new era,” and “shaping the future” are often used in scams to create a sense of innovation and legitimacy.

10. Unverifiable Claims: The website makes claims about being the “all-time leaderboard holder” and other achievements without providing verifiable evidence

Great platform with fair conditions that benefits traders, everything is transparent and no hidden rules in contrary to the propfirms that there is out there. For all the benefits that i got presented it's worth the price no doubt.

No Challenge...No Brainer!

Its been a great experience where i knew nothing about the trading to having plethora of knowledge about trading. Though i am still a novice but i would really like to thank OTC and team for the support and the type of modules they have is excellent.

Really amazing experience so far!

My first payout was really fast and right now I upgraded from a 45k to a 90k account which was available in minutes!

Can't recommend OTC and Campus Fund more!

And special thanks to Aaron for the fast and professional support!

Oscar was great, no pressure gave me a couple of hours to think on it further. Even though it was a no brainer.
Thank you Oscar for your assistance.

I purchased the Campus Fund Account (the 45k version for $1,500) and would like to share my experience. Overall, I am dissatisfied with this model and, for me personally, it does not make any sense. Unfortunately, an account return is not possible

The advertised “account size” (e.g., 45,000 USD) is not the actual amount available for trading. The decisive factor is the maximum drawdown, which in my case was only $2,000 (about 4.4% of the stated amount). This ratio applies to all account sizes. In practice, the drawdown defines the real trading capital.

There is also a 30% profit split deducted from the profits. For example, if I doubled the available drawdown amount (which would be considered as a passed challenge in many challenge-style models), I would generate $2,000 in profit. After the 30% deduction, that leaves $1,400 – which means that even after delivering solid performance, I would still end up below the initial $1,500 fee. On top of that, the participation fee is non-refundable. It's advertised that you can earn money directly with the Instant Funding account. As you can see, that's not true. You also have to double your drawdown, like in a prop challenge, before you start earning money.

Risk management feels very different from what the nominal account size suggests. For instance, risking 0.5% of the advertised 45k account ($225) actually means risking 11.25% of the real $2,000 drawdown. After nine losing trades at this risk, the account would effectively be gone.

When looking at larger accounts, such as the 180k Campus Account, the same pattern applies. The drawdown there is $8,000, but the entry fee is $6,000 (non-refundable). To break even on this fee, I would first need to generate more than $8,000 profit. After the 80/20 split, that leaves $6,400, which only results in a net of $400 – likely requiring months of trading. In comparison, other providers offer higher drawdowns for a lower, and often refundable, entry fee.

In my view, it almost feels like trading with my own money, since the entry costs are high and the rules limit what I can do with the account. The added restrictions, such as only being able to hold 20% of margin over the weekend, also make it less flexible. With a personal broker account, the same buying power can be achieved via leverage, without participation fees or profit splits, and with more freedom.

Another point: it is presented as if the account could be traded directly through TradingView. In practice, this is not the case. The Campus Fund platform is based on TradingView but not integrated into it. Trades must be executed on the separate platform, and the Campuf Fund indicators cannot be used there and other tool-settings can also not be saved there. For me, it is not suitable for technical analysis.

To be fair, I do want to highlight the educational aspect. The trading education, especially the live trading sessions from some of the mentors, as well as the Q&A chats, can be very helpful for beginners. However, my comments above refer solely to the Campus Fund Account itself.

Like most newbies, I trusted OTC because of the YouTube videos and didn't have enough understanding of the concept to see through this nonsense. That comes later, and I was exactly the target group that should be reached. I cannot imagine that a neutral expert would recommend this concept for anybody.

I regret that I bought it.

Very easy interface no complications well done OTC!

All the information given to me by Don was very informative and I asked so many questions which he was happy to answer. The process seemed professional and inspiring. I now look forward to seeing trading conditions, hopefully future payouts and long terms success with Campus Fund😁

I bought a 360,000 account for 10,000 and received a drawdown of 16,000. That's the understandable business case. The withdrawal process—I've already received one—is rather time-consuming and too complicated for 2025. It requires print screens and PDFs for an application. That's not up to date. The payment itself was quick, within 24 hours. The withdrawal time, the window, is small. It's only possible in the first 10 days, and only if you were profitable the previous month. So not just in the first 10 days. Confused? Yes, I am too.

Now, the trading conditions: They're often very strange for metals and energies. I compare them with the CFD prices and spreads at FTMO. I think I've noticed several modified prices. Chart patterns that didn't correspond to the price, as if someone was trying to chase suspected lows or highs (SL). Daily candles were higher than with other providers. Such behavior unsettles me. Campus support is usually just an AI, which is accordingly overwhelmed. Response times are far too long to offer a professional platform. Furthermore, the simplest issues aren't understood, and ultimately, customers give up. Therefore, I cannot fully support Campus.

Update: The platform has been unusable for almost two weeks. Charts aren't loading correctly. Implementation on TradingView continues to be rather slow. Support has acknowledged the issue, but so far, neither a solution nor compensation has been offered. Charging $10,000 for this is pretty ridiculous.

The team were amazing, Aaron was fantastic in guiding me through the steps in joining the Online Campus Team and receiving funding. Showing me the trading platform. Professional and very helpful answering my questions I asked. I look forward to my journey with OTC. A+

Smooth process, great support, and an easy-to-use trading platform!

The registration process is straightforward and doesn't require much time. The Campus Fund team provides support from day 1 and offers regular check-ins if you want them.

For me, the best point: unlike with other funding firms, there is no pressure for achievements; you can trade at your own speed.

If you are ready for a funded account, I can only recommend applying for the Campus Fund

Everyone I have spoken to are very helpful and friendly. The training is fantastic! Getting access to my platform was easy.
Excellent service 👍

Have been with these folks for a few months now and have never had any issues. Service is outstanding from Aaron, and I am extremely happy to have a fund that is far superior to anything else in the sector. These folks I will be with for a life time

Great experience so far! The platform with Trading-View Integration is nice and i love The amount of tradable Stocks. Best Prop-Firm for stock-traders I know. The only downside for me is that it operates in netting mode rather than hedging mode.

Getting start was super easy. It gets you in the game straight away - Lets go!

I've been a student of Online Trading Campus for 9 months now but did not do anything except watch a few videos in the old program. When I was ready, I came back ready to learn and the Campus Fund prop firm is now in affect. It was not yet there when I first joined. They set up my funded account the same day I chose a trading level and sent the required funds. I now have a funded account without completing any challenges.

I am very happy to be an exclusive part of this wonderful, professional trading group. Here is my warning to future trading prospects: Be ready to bring your "A-game" because they sure do! They do not have time for time-wasters and those who aren't serious. They are not going to chase you around. If you want it, they are there for you but they do not play around. They fully explain that it is ultimately up to YOU to bring about the life you've always wanted and they WILL help you get there if you want them to. Now I gotta get back to work going through the training Blueprint so I can "learn while I earn!"

I’m a student at Online Trading Campus and couldn’t be happier with the depth of the material and the outstanding support. The training is clear, well-structured, and truly focused on building long-term trading skills. What really sets them apart is Campus.Fund — their proprietary trading firm — which gives students a real opportunity to trade with significant capital.

The key difference is their model: they genuinely want you to succeed, unlike many other prop firms that profit from your failure. That mindset makes a huge difference.

Highly recommend it to anyone serious about professional trading.
